Hi matrix,

I had a little Google around and it looks as though that's a MooTools/IE9 problem that appears to be fixed in MooTools 1.2.5.

MooTools 1.2.5 have improved IE9 compatibility, so when you're getting message like below, use Ghazals 1.2.5 version or get own here (http://mootools.net/download/version/1.2.5 > 1.2.5 with 1.1 Classes) and save in /plugins/system/mtupgrade/mootools.js

Hi matrix,

I upgraded the mootools version on my test server and the bug seems to have disappeared.

I've attached a JSminified version of the file to this post. Unzip the attachment and then place the new mootools.js file in the /plugins/system/mtupgrade/ folder on your site replacing the existing mootools.js

i have downloaded the file:
mootools-1.2.5-core-nc.js
then, i have renamed to mootol.js and copy into the folder. but the validation is always missing.

now, i have copy the attached file in the mtupgrade-folder. the validation is not there...

Hi matrix,

I can only say that it fixed the bug I found.

Please post a link to the form so we can take a quick look.

Hi matrix,

There's a JavaScript error on the template that is stopping the JavaScript. If you view the form without the template the validation is working OK.

The error is

index.php:line 45 UncaughtReferenceError: jQuery is not defined

 <script type="text/javascript">if (jQuery) document._artxJQueryBackup = jQuery;</script>

ok - it was a problem with the artisteer template. i have made the template now with the version from yiesterday. the validation is now ok.
great thank's on all...

sorry - but the validation is not totaly correct. the fields are working correct, but the captcha is not working. when the field is empty, the validation is working, but i can insert any code, the form is sending.
GreyHead 24 Mar, 2011
Hi matrix,

That isn't a browser related problem because the Captcha checking is done on the server after the form is submitted.

Most likely you haven't set an Action for the for the Check Captcha On Fail event. From memory it needs an Event Loop to reload the form. I think Max posted the correct setup here.

Hi,

Could anybody try the date picker of V4 on IE9 please ? some users reported that it doesn't work on IE9 even with Moo 1.2.5

Thanks!

Hi Max,

Looks OK here - CFV4 RC1.6 on IE9 with MooTools 1.2.5

PS This is the minified version of "MooTools 1.2.5 with 1.1 Classes" that I posted in the forums here. It might not work with plain 1.2.5.

Hi

I encountered this same problem and managed to solve it by replacing mootools to version 1.2.5 as recommended.

Problem is once I do that, validation does not work in Firefox, nor do the menus in the admin section of joomla.

Is there a later mootools version compatible with Chronoforms instead?

Currently using Joomla 1.5.22, Chrono Forms V4, Firefox 5.0.1, IE9

Hi ingenious1,

You should not need to replace MooTools in Joomla! 1.5.19+. Instead enable the MooTools upgrade plug-in which is now built-in to Joomla!. You should probably also upgrade Joomla! to 1.5.23 as there were some MooTools related bug-fixes.

Hopefully this will fix the problewm you are seeing.

Wow.. that solved all my problems..

Thanks very much and great product.

I'll be getting my client to buy you a beer shortly! :-)

Hi,
I have Joomla! 1.5.21 and a validated version of Chronoforms V3.
I have the same problem with internet Explorer 9, but only in one form.
I've tried to activate Mootools upgrade Plugin, but it stops my backend menus (and it doesn't solve my problem). I've also tried to replace the mootools.js file as shown in these posts.

But the problem remains in this form:
http://www.disturbipsichici.it/invia-la-tua-domanda-a-uno-psicologo
Only in this form and only with IE9.

What can I do?
Thanks

Hi direzione.phoenix,

Please see this post for a code snippet to force the page to load in IE8 Compatibility mode. This seems to be a practical workaround for the IE9 problem.

I solved the problem.
